    While I am happy about my weight today, I am very sad. I am being laid off. Today is probably my last day here at this office. I love this company and soooooo do not want to leave. On a positive note, at least I didn't binge last night. I am usually a stress eater, but I kept it under contrl. Imagine that!
    Have a good day everyone! Love ya guys!

    Memaw

    p.s.
    at least this time when I go out for interview, I will look a lot better!

    Good luck Memaw! I know it's kind of hard to do, but look at it as a clean break...this is your opportunity to do something else. Maybe something more exciting or something you have been wanting to do for a while. I hope everything works out for you.

    I think I fell off the deep end! Time to get cracking again, I am planning my meals for tomorrow tonight to see if that will start making the difference. I also have been working more night shifts and for some reason being tired gives me permission to eat what ever I want. :noway: I guess changing things up will be what I need to do!

    Morning!
    I got on the scale and it said 199.8!!
    But I am not going to count it as official until Wednesday and we are having company this weekend and having a bbq so don't know how well I will do. We will see on Weds but it was nice to see a 1 at the beginning of my weight instead of a 2!!!

    Awe Memaw ... what a nice little token from your boss ... I bet you'll be missed there.

    So ... for an update ... today hasn't been too bad so far ... and I have a chilli in the crock pot for supper tonight. Yesterday was a bad day for eating ... I just couldn't get full ... I hate those days. Went over by a good 500+ calories. Oh well ... what's done is done. I'm going to try and have better control tonight. I have so much to do at home that I find myself eating to avoid it ... there ... now I've confessed it ... now it's behind me. I wish you all healthy and happy days.


    I hope last nite was better for you. Hang in there it will get easier. :bigsmile:

    Don't kick yourself too hard for it. You have learned that eating anything and everything will do this. Now your plan is good, plan ahead and try to get in some exercise at least 3 to 5 times a week. Even if it is just 30 mins. You can do it. We are all here cheering you. :bigsmile:

    You have set great goals with your exercise. I am actually doing the C5K and am on week 5. I actually am able to do it and I am really excited about that. I wish you luck with it.
    The key is to also eat clean with your workouts. Just because your exercising, does not mean you are going to lose. Your food choices are so important with your workouts. Make sure to fuel your body properly in order to get through the day and your workouts. You can do it.
    At least you are lossing at a good steady pace. Keep up the great work. :bigsmile:

    Thanks for the vote of confidence. I have been exercising about 45 mins at least 5 days a week, I think it is time for me to start doing something other than the treadmill though. I also do weight training--via biggest loser books. My biggest downfall is eating, so my goal is to focus on that. Exercise comes easy for me, eating does not. Planning ahead is working so far we will see what the rest of the day brings. :happy: Have a good one.

    Once you get a routine with your planning with your foods it will become easier. I do actually eat the same thing everyday during the week and change it up during the weekend. It seems to be working for me. Everyone has their own way. So, keep up the great work. :bigsmile:
